Designed for Honda S2000 K-Series Engine Conversions
The Innovative Mounts 80750 is engineered for the 2000–2009 Honda S2000 chassis when installing a compatible K-Series engine with a manual transmission.
Key advantages include:
Application-specific design for the Honda S2000 AP chassis.
Supports compatible Honda K-Series engine conversions.
Designed for manual transmission applications.
Additional exhaust header clearance.
Durable steel mounting construction.
Performance polyurethane bushings.
Reduced excessive engine movement.
Improved drivetrain stability.
CAD/CAM-engineered mounting geometry.
Multiple bushing hardness options for street and competition applications.
Extra Exhaust Header Clearance
One of the primary advantages of the Innovative Mounts 80750 is its specialized design that provides additional exhaust header clearance.
K-Series engine conversions can introduce packaging challenges due to the engine's exhaust layout and the limited space available within the S2000 engine bay.
The 80750 is engineered to provide additional clearance around the exhaust header area, making it an attractive option for custom K-Series swap projects.
This feature is particularly beneficial when planning:
Aftermarket exhaust header installations.
Custom exhaust manifolds.
Performance exhaust routing.
Turbocharged K-Series applications.
Engine bay configurations where header clearance is a concern.
Important: Additional header clearance does not guarantee compatibility with every aftermarket header, turbo manifold, or exhaust configuration. Custom fabrication may still be required.
Honda K20 and K24 Engine Swap Applications
Honda's K-Series engine family is a popular choice for performance builds because of its strong aftermarket support, efficient cylinder head designs, and extensive tuning potential.
Depending on the engine selected, a K-Series conversion can provide an excellent balance of horsepower, torque, reliability, and upgrade potential.
Popular engine candidates include:
Honda K20A
Honda K20A2
Honda K20Z1
Honda K20Z3
Honda K24A
Honda K24A2
Honda K24Z-series engines, subject to additional compatibility verification
Important: Individual engine compatibility depends on the block, engine-side mounting brackets, accessory configuration, oil pan, transmission arrangement, and supporting swap components. Not every K-Series engine is a direct bolt-in application.
Performance Polyurethane Bushings
The Innovative Mounts 80750 utilizes performance polyurethane bushings designed to reduce excessive drivetrain movement.
Compared with conventional factory rubber mounts, polyurethane bushings provide increased resistance to engine rocking during acceleration, deceleration, and shifting.
Benefits include:
Reduced excessive engine movement.
Improved drivetrain stability.
More consistent engine positioning.
Reduced mount deflection under load.
Improved drivetrain response.
Potential reduction in wheel hop.
Increased resistance to drivetrain movement.
Multiple available bushing hardness options.
Durable Steel Construction
Innovative Mounts manufactures the 80750 using steel mounting components engineered for performance drivetrain applications.
CAD/CAM design and stress analysis help provide consistent mounting geometry and dependable drivetrain support.
The mounting system is designed to accommodate the unique installation requirements of a K-Series engine within the S2000 chassis.
